Sammanfattning

Titel: Lönesystemens påverkan på fastighetsmäklare - en studie inom fastighetsmäklarbranschen.

Författare: Eve-Linn och Nilsson Sanna Mattsson

Handledare: Sofia Molander

Problemformulering: "Påverkas fastighetsmäklare av provisionsbaserad lön?"

"Påverkar provision mäklarens förmåga att leverera god kvalitet på sin tjänst?"

"Påverkar provisionen konkurrensen och arbetsmiljön på arbetsplatsen?"

Syfte: Syftet med vår studie är att beskriva om provision påverkar fastighetsmäklares arbetssituation och arbetsmiljö.

Sammanfattning: För att besvara vårt syfte har vi i teorikapitlet presenterat relevanta teorier som ligger till grund för denna studie. Bland annat presenteras de vanligaste lönesystemen för fastighetsmäklare idag, definitionen av tjänstekvalitet, etiska svårigheter hos säljyrken, hur en god arbetsmiljö definieras och vad som krävs för att den ska vara god. Resultatet grundar sig i en enkätundersökning som skickats ut till aktiva fastighetsmäklare runt om i Sverige, där har det ställts frågor angående mäklarnas egen uppfattning om lönesystem och dess påverkan på deras yrkesliv. I undersökningen framkom att många är missnöjda med sin provisionsbaserade lön då det skapar stora osäkerheter. Det visade sig även att majoriteten av de svarande anser att lönesystemet uppmuntrar till oetiska handlingar, försämrad kvalitet och stress. Stor andel respondenter beskrev också att provisionslön leder till sämre arbetsmiljö och egoistiskt beteende.

Nyckelord: Provision, lönesystem, tjänstekvalitet, fastighetsmäklare

Question formulation: "Do commission effects real estate agents?"

"Do commission affect the competition between the agents and their working environment?"

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to describe if commission affects real estate agents, their working situation and working environment.

Summary: The theory chapter presents relevant theories as the base to this study, but also to help us answer the purpose of this study. Among other things, the most common payroll systems for a real estate agent will be presented, the definition of service quality, ethical problems in sales occupations and how to define a good work environment is also included in this study. The result is based on a questionnaire sent out to active real estate agents in Sweden. The questionnaire contains questions regarding real estate agents own perception of salary system and its impact on their professional life. The survey found that many real estate agents are unhappy with their commission-based salary as it creates large uncertainties. It was also found that the majority of respondents feel that the payroll system encourages unethical acts, deteriorating quality and stress. Large proportion of respondents also describes that the commission salary leads to poorer working conditions and egoistic behaviour.
